04/10/07:
I was shocked, angry and deeply saddened to hear of the passing of David. I have fond memories of regularly meeting for coffee, jovially teasing him about his Burnley accent and I'll never forget the time that David, Pete and I went to Big Gay Out 2005 in London.
My deepest sympathies go out to anybody whom has been affected by his passing, and especially to the close friends and family. The only thing to hope for now is that justice will be done, and the monster who took David away in such a brutal manner made to face up to and pay for his crime. It's an absolute travesty that it seems that this was only over a couple of pounds, and incredibly upsetting that David lost his life over it.
Davii, may you rest in peace, and thank you for all of the wonderful memories.
